Feeling uneasy under the gaze of those behind him.

It wasn't that he didn't want to talk to Ge Li, but...

Since Chris had already noticed his presence here, he figured it was best not to court disaster.

Moreover, after being promoted to the main campus, his and Kareem's fame expanded to another level, and many classmates and teachers knew them.

Therefore, one must try to avoid close contact with others in public.

Otherwise, someone might spread rumors all over the place at any time. Even His Majesty the King is not immune to such things, and he dares not personally experience the power of rumors.

The pricking sensation on my back only lasted a short while before disappearing.

As Wayne left with two cups of iced coffee, he could only catch a glimpse of Gothic bowing his head again, continuing to busy himself with his own affairs.

After leaving the tea restaurant, he stopped in his tracks.

He turned around.

He stood blankly by the aisle, holding two takeout iced coffees, staring at Miss Ge Li sitting inside through the glass window.

He couldn't express how he felt.

This situation... is unfair to both Geli and Chris.

However, he was very greedy.

They were so greedy that they knew it was cruel to them, yet they still went ahead with it.

The bright sunlight cast his silhouette onto the ground, leaving a shadow.

He smiled faintly.

Why would Miss Ge Li like such a nasty person?

If that person wasn't me...

I'm afraid Mr. Wayne Wincher would definitely advise Miss Geli to stay away from such a scumbag.

……

Drama Department.

“Wayne, you’re amazing!” Chris cheered as she took the still-chilling coffee.

On the other side, Lawrence protested, "Hey, why didn't you bring one for me too?!"

Wayne, with a stern face, pushed Lawrence away as he leaned closer.

"Are you my girlfriend?" he asked righteously.

Upon hearing his words, Chris paused slightly, her bright eyes darting across his face before looking away.

Lawrence, on the contrary, seemed quite surprised.

"Huh? You two are already... in that kind of relationship?"

What kind of relationship is it?

Wayne sat down next to Chris with a disgruntled expression.

"Yes, it's a relationship that can't be broken even if you want to."

His palms were still icy cold from holding the iced coffee.

He suddenly raised his hand and placed his palm on Chris's fair and soft arm.

“Hey!” Chris jumped.

"How was it? Wasn't it great!" he laughed.

"You big idiot!"

Chris was furious.

She wasn't one to be taken advantage of easily, so she quickly released her grip on the cup and placed it below Wayne's neck.

However, due to the short contact time and insufficient icing, Chris's fingers, wet with water droplets, only felt comfortable to him.

"Haha, give me a little more."

Wayne paid no attention to her weak and childish revenge.

"Hey, can you stop being all lovey-dovey in front of other people?"

Lawrence's resentful voice shattered the balance of power between Wayne and Chris.

Upon hearing this, Chris glanced to the side and saw Lawrence, the minister, and some other members looking at the two who were "in close contact" with varying expressions.

She twitched her lips, glared at Wayne resentfully, and moved a seat away from him.

Wayne brazenly followed.

She moved again.

Wayne followed up again.

Until she was already sitting in a corner with nowhere else to go, Wayne naturally blocked all her escape routes.

"you……"

Chris thought he looked particularly irritating today.

"I'm sorry."

Seeing that she was really angry, Wayne immediately softened his stance and took her hand that was on the table.

Chris tried to break free, but couldn't. Seeing that he was staring intently at her, as if he would never let go, she felt helpless and had no choice but to let him be.

Having finally achieved a partial victory, Wayne revealed a somewhat smug smile.

He turned his head and looked at the crowd of onlookers.

Everyone immediately pretended that they hadn't been peeking at all and started talking about random, nonsensical topics.

"Ah...the weather is so nice today."

"Yeah, yeah... At times like these, I wish I could spend all my time in the pool."

Wayne looked somewhat speechless.

If you're going to pretend, at least make it look convincing...

Just then, there was a noise at the door.

"咚咚-"

Tasia knocked nervously on the already open door of the activity room.

"I'm sorry, I'm late."

Seeing the chosen protagonist appear, Chris stood up with delight.

"It's not too late, now is the perfect time to start discussing the plot." She wanted to go out.

However, they were blocked by such a big obstacle as Wayne.

"...Could you please move aside?" she asked with a smile, trying her best to be polite.

Wayne glanced at her wistfully and silently moved aside.

He was a little unhappy.

To have to watch Chris act as someone else's love interest...

Even if the other person is the original female lead whom you also have feelings for, it's still hard to accept!

Chapter 167 Chris's Tumultuous Script

In the drama club, everyone sat together.

“Ahem…” Chris cleared her throat and said with a serious expression, “After several days of working through the night to revise it, this first draft has been finalized.”

Then, she changed the subject.

"However, the actual performance may need to be adjusted slightly based on the actual situation, and these issues can be identified during each rehearsal."

"I hope that everyone can work hard to continuously improve the script and devote themselves to this battle without reservation."

"Only victory is allowed; defeat is not permitted!"

With her encouragement, everyone raised their arms and cheered.

She took a deep breath and slammed the manuscript onto the table with a loud "thud!"

Looking at the substantial stack of papers and the high morale of the people around him, Wayne felt a slight sense of relief.

It seems that Chris is really serious about preparing for this competition.

Fortunately, he had already persuaded Miss Ge Li with his outstanding male good looks.

Therefore, even if the orchestra loses this time, the blame for losing the activity room can probably be shifted to someone else, and then Ms. Kareem can find another opportunity to win it back.

……perhaps.

With ulterior motives, he listened silently to the explanation of the plot.

"A commoner girl suddenly rescued a prince who had fallen into the sea one day."

Wayne looked thoughtful.

Hmm... this opening sounds kind of familiar?

"She took the prince home and cared for him carefully, and the prince woke up."

In Chris's clear and melodious voice, a story full of ups and downs was told:

The two were deeply attracted to each other and fell in love. However, the small country did not allow princes to marry commoners.

The prince said that if he had some time, he would definitely marry the girl.

As a result, they rarely saw each other and could only meet secretly.

After some time, the girl could no longer tolerate this kind of life and proposed to break up.

The prince was in unbearable pain and pleaded desperately.

At his urging, the girl got back together with him.

However, the prince could still only visit her secretly.

Even when she heard where the prince had appeared and wanted to go see him, she was stopped by the guards standing by the carriage.

The prince said many sweet words to her, which moved her deeply.

However, this feeling was completely useless. Once the prince left, the girl could not see that noble prince again no matter what she tried.

She finally couldn't resist any longer and waited ahead of time at an event where the prince was sure to appear, hoping to catch a glimpse of him from afar.

The crowd cheered and jubilant, and praises of the prince echoed through the air.

The girl finally realized that she and the person in front of her had no future.

She left a letter and moved away from her original village.

The prince lost track of her whereabouts.

Soon, news spread throughout the capital that the prince was seriously ill and on the verge of death, but no one could figure out what illness he had.

The girl, who had been living under an assumed name, was heartbroken upon hearing the news and longed to see him one last time.

After hearing that the prince would be going to the seaside to relax, she hesitated and followed the carriage, but was suspected of being an assassin and was arrested on the spot by the guards.

The guards imprisoned her.

That very night, the prince appeared in the prison and released her.

It turns out that he had also noticed the previous unexpected situation.

The girl immediately inquired about his condition with concern.

The prince said: My illness was caused by missing you, but it was cured without any medicine once I saw you.

The girl kissed the prince with emotion.

The two got back together.
